...case is a toss-up. Me-too marketing happens in nearly every product category--think "ice" beer and "lite" everything. But there is a point when imitation becomes more than flattery. If Gallo is found guilty, it could be forced to redesign its Turning Leaf packaging and turn over millions in profits to Kendall-Jackson...

Still, Arledge is widely revered by ABC News veterans, who toss around words like genius when referring to him. "He's the best news president I've ever worked for," says Tom Bettag, executive producer of Nightline, who saw plenty of them come and go at CBS before joining ABC in 1991. "When you compare him, not to perfection, but to other...
